A lender mails the loan estimate on Monday 8 June rather than delivering it in person. Consummation is set for Friday 19 June.

Correct Answer

B) Receipt is presumed Thursday 11 June, 3 business days after the mailing

Where a disclosure is mailed, the consumer is presumed to have received it 3 business days later, which matters because the 7-business-day wait before consummation runs from receipt. Other choices: the next business day and the day of mailing both ignore the presumption; and 7 calendar days is neither the presumption nor the waiting period. See 12 CFR 1026.19(e)(1)(iv).
